Alprazolam Dava Xanax
(Newest replies first)

I'm wondering if my new script of dava alprazolam is a quality generic?

REPORT

DAVA is bad news. They were supposed to be closed down but it appears they were just acquired by ENDO and/or Sun. Both companies are under investigation and cease and desist orders. The early part of 2019 I wondered why Costco, Walgreens, CVS, and even mom and pop pharmacies all switched to DAVA. I took one of the DAVA alprazolam (I am on it because I suffer from Shogrens). It burned like acid when I swallowed it. I became to investigate and found that DAVA was manufacturing in India and they were putting filler in the pills. Filler can be anything including floor scraps. It took a lot of complaints to all pharmacies until they went back to Greenstone and/or Sandoz. Remember there have been 4 directors of the FDA since May 2019. Nobody at the FDA is monitoring these meds. Whatever supplier offers them the pharmacy buyers at the cheapest prices gets the contract. We get the floor sweepings.

FYI, generic medications MUST have the same amount of the active ingredient as the Brand medication. The + or - % applies to the bioequivalence of the generic. Bioequivalence is the rate and amount of the generic's active ingredient to be absorbed by the body. There is some complex bioequivalence analysis done which is way beyond my science 'education.' Again, if the pill is 1 mg aprazolam, that generic does have 1 mg of alprazolam in it.

Where do you get the Dava? My pharmacy cvs changed to Breckenridge and do not like them. Have called around for Dava but pharmacies won’t say brand over the phone. Ugh

Have they improved since 2017. I went to a pharmacy with greenstone which I prefer. I just took one and noticed the petro chem taste is no longer there.

I agree this has been forced on me and it is currently being dispensed by CVS Pharmacy. This is not you. I experienced this same thing about 5 years ago with CVS. This generic is garbage. Pattie... it's not you at all. Unfortunately I got out of the building before I realized what they had give me. Everyone should refuse the yellow gennaric from DAVA Pharm.

Its within 10% of 100% . The real xanax made by pfizer is over the 100% that's why they work so well. I just had 2mg dava bars and they are very good. Sandoz are good also actavis are good. Greenstone are probably the best generic they are owned by pfizer the company that owns brand nane xanax their generics are at 98% to 100% alprazolam powder in them so 10% less than xanax but still the strongest of generics. Qualitest are decent too. Mylan are usually garbage. But I would go xanax,greenstone, dava then actavis and sandoz tied. Well atleast before. Im gonna retest all of them. I want to get them tested for how much alprazolam it contains.

Very good quality. I've taken Alprazolam for 15 years and next to only Greenstone, this is the best generic available.

they are not the best generic but they're not the worst either....i never found anything wrong with them...they worked pretty good for my anxiety and didn't put me to sleep like some other brands... the best brand is greenstone, they are affiliated with pfizer who makes xanax. they are the exact same shape and size and only difference is the imprint...IMO...sandoz is another good generic which both are hard to find nowadays... pharmacies are going with the cheapest generics possible these days

All generics available on the U.S. market have to fall within the same acceptable quality guidelines, which is being within plus or minus 20% of the amount of the active ingredient in the name brand.

The only thing you can really do is try it and see how well it works for you, because some people react differently to those fluctuations, regardless of how small they are.

Are there any other questions or comments?
